". Madam President, our fellow Members in this Chamber have mentioned that this is a recurring debate in the European Parliament. It is indeed a recurring debate, but taking place in different economic and social conditions from before. We are in a global recession and the European Union is in crisis. No one believes that we have emerged from this crisis yet, with many Member States still facing the reality of recession. Under these circumstances, I do not believe that we – in this Parliament – need to contribute to the situation by adding a further 100 000 unemployed to those we currently have in the European Union. Secondly, we are discussing a new European energy strategy – another background factor. I believe that our approach in this new strategy must not be to increase our dependency on a single hydrocarbon source, but to increase our economic independence. Finally, the 21st century economy has been mentioned. I believe indeed that we need to be involved with this economy but, at the same time, we must focus on diversifying current potential. In this respect, I congratulate the rapporteur, Mr Rapkay."@en1
